Sarnath is 12 km from Varanasi city centre — so the round trip to Sarnath and back adds 24 km to the odometer. The 8Hr/80Km package usually accommodates Sarnath within the 80 km limit if city sightseeing is also done efficiently. If you specifically want to cover Sarnath plus all major city temples and ghats, we recommend the 12Hr/120Km package which comfortably covers everything. Ask when booking.
For NRI families or groups where premium experience matters — Maharaja Force Urbania is ideal. Leather-feel cabin, USB charging, individual AC — a comfortable base between temples. For large pilgrim groups of 14–25 where budget matters — 17-seater or 26-seater Tempo gives everyone a seat at significantly lower per-person cost. For groups with elderly members doing a full day — Maharaja Urbania is the most caring choice.
